  3. Amplitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude

    The majority of scientific literature [3] employs the term amplitude or peak amplitude to mean semi-amplitude. It is the most widely used measure of orbital wobble in astronomy and the measurement of small radial velocity semi-amplitudes of nearby stars is important in the search for exoplanets (see Doppler spectroscopy ).

  4. Lombard effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lombard_effect

    A speaker can regulate their vocalizations, particularly their amplitude relative to background noise, with reflexive auditory feedback. Such auditory feedback is known to maintain the production of vocalization since deafness affects the vocal acoustics of both humans [ 17 ] and songbirds [ 18 ] Changing the auditory feedback also changes ...

  5. Orchestration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestration

    For example, a work for solo piano could be adapted and orchestrated so that an orchestra could perform the piece, or a concert band piece could be orchestrated for a symphony orchestra. In classical music, composers have historically orchestrated their own music. Only gradually over the course of music history did orchestration come to be ...

Bach, Handel, Vivaldi), which generally had a smaller number of performers, and in which one or more chord-playing instruments, the basso continuo group (e.g., harpsichord or pipe organ and assorted bass instruments to perform the bassline), played an important role; the second is a typical classical ...

  8. Vibrato - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibrato

    Because amplitude varies directly with sound pressure (A = k 1 P) and sound pressure varies directly with distance (P = k 2 d), such that amplitude also varies directly with distance (A = k 1 (k 2 d) = k 1 k 2 d), the amplitude of the sound as perceived by the listener will be greatest when the speaker is at the point in its rotation closest to ...

  9. Spectral music - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_music

    Definition [ edit ] Defined in technical language, spectral music is an acoustic musical practice where compositional decisions are often informed by sonographic representations and mathematical analysis of sound spectra, or by mathematically generated spectra.
